Description:
95 p. ; 22 cm.
Summary:
"The collection is divided into two sections. Ktàpihëna (we are here) is the opening section and utilizes individual pieces to explore the contemporary Indigenous lyric experience with the natural and built environments of the
island
. Given its isolation from the rest of the country and its tiny population, this statement section helps to establish Pelee
Island
in context and in spirit. This takes up approximately half of the book and is the more typical individual poem driven section of most contemporary collections. The collection closes with a 45-page myth in the Anglo-Saxon style of epic poetry entitled Piper. The myth is loosely based on the infamous professional wrestler and actor Rowdy Roddy Piper's time on the
island
and the events of Wrestlemania XII, his infamous 'Backlot Brawl' with fellow wrestler Gold Dust. In the end Piper vanquishes the evil of Gold Dust and leaves the
island
to its original inhabitants."-- Publisher.
